I made a seat for my bike and molded the leather and after dying was not happy with the finish of the leather (heavy grain) I was was very happy with the way the molding turned out Most of the time I tool my leather first then wet the edges and stretch it over the seat foam but with this last seat I was shocked on how well the molding turned out and was curious if anybody has molded their leather first then tooled it any help would be great and pics would be a plus Thanks Dale

Just an intro for those that need to know I'm located in the Metro-Detroit aera and do custom sheet-metal fab and machining. I try as much as possible to learn the craft of leather tooling and stumbled on to this site during a search for info so if you don't mind I think that I will stick around and pester everybody for awhile Thanks Dale
